wierd GQ TB42 clutch prob.....

Post by Screwy »

when my motor is cold.... and only when it is cold....

as soon as i put the clutch in, i get a wierd groaning noise kinda thing that goes away as soon as i start to drive or pull clutch back out.
completely goes away when engine is warm.....

and u can feel it in the pedal when pulling it put and pushing it in when cold along with the noise............

it also stays groaning as long as the clutch is in ( while cold ), doesnt go away with the length of time the clutch is in.....

not like a grinding, or a squeeling of anything , just a groan ggrrrr sound.......

The rig has no clutch slipping at all either.....

ideas????

cheers

i reckon its gotta be the throwout (thrust) bearing
you put your foot on the clutch, it spins and if its worn it groans/grinds/squeals.
when your foot is off the clutch the bearing is retracted away from the pressure plate and does not spin.

Yep, bearing. Change it before it siezes or lets go. More expensive then.
